> Will industry move towards simple solutions after experiencing this churn down the line or are we doomed forever? That depends on the individual developer. For example, I'm working to clean up the mess that has become app dev w/ JavaScript (https://github.com/cheatcode/joystick https://github.com/cheatcode/joystick), but I expect many will dismiss it short-term because it's not "what everybody else is doing" (despite being far simpler and clearer than the state-of-the-art). And therein lies the problem: groupthink. There are very few people asking "how do we simplify this" or "how can we make this more clear" and a whole lot of people trying to impress each other with their galaxy brain knowledge of unnecessary tech. The good news is that it's not a technical problem, but a cultural one. People are afraid to think independently and so they just go along with whatever the "best and brightest" say to do (which is usually an incentivized position due to existing relationships/opportunities).
